Introduction

Spotify Wrapped 2016-2020

Every december Spotify makes you a “wrapped” playlist of the 100 songs you most frequently listened to that year giving a clear picture of your music taste that year. I’ve always found that my music taste is kind of variable with a lot of different genre’s so it would be interesting to see how my music taste has changed from 2016 till now. To compare my music taste from 2016 to 2020 i will analyze my Spotify wrapped 2016-2020 playlists using the following metrics: valence, danceability, energy, tempo and modality.

After getting a global idea i’d like to take one favorite song from each year which i will compare in more depth, using the metrics mentioned above and chroma/timbregrams to look at similarities/differences. (WIP)

Corpus:

My Corpus is divided into 5 groups of spotify wrapped playlists representing 2016 to 2020:

Wrapped 2016

Wrapped 2017

Wrapped 2018

Wrapped 2019

Wrapped 2020
